AS Roma maintained their push for the Scudetto with a thrilling 2-1 victory over Lazio in a fractious derby at the Stadio Olimpico.
Tommaso Rocchi gave Lazio the lead on 14 minutes with a clinical finish but Sergio Floccari saw his penalty saved by Roma goalkeeper Júlio Sérgio to prevent the host going 2-0 ahead shortly after the break.
Mirko Vučinić then stole the show, equalising in the 53rd minute from the penalty spot before smashing a free kick through a hole in Lazio's wall 10 minutes later for the winner.
Lazio ended the game with just 10 men after Cristian Ledesma was sent off for a second bookable offence in injury time.
